OMG Siana, that's a great saying... 'It's as easy to keep myself on track as off track'. I am sooo going to incorporate that into my life from now on. Thank you so much for your wise words. I never thought of it like that before!

I'm sure you'll do brilliantly next week. You're a champion after all and never forget that!

Oh boy!I seem to be up and down lately. My hubby was home for the week and i got lazy with exercise....AND the lady that is stayingwith us now works at dominos and brings it home with her....however we have now come to an agreement that she will no longer bring it home...she wants to lose weight aswell.Doing better today...have already exercised but im planning to do more this arvo.....cos i feel like it!! Thats so weird....i hated exercise before...it was such a chore...but now i dont mind it.Ive got my friends wedding on the 10th of next month....where i will be a bridesmaid!!!So im going to lose all i can for the next week and a bit and then when i get the pics ill try to post one on here.

yay wedding pics are always so lovely. I am sure you will look radiant as a bridesmaid I have had bad bridesmaid pics before, its what actually made me start losing weight. But I just KNOW you will look great!!!! YOU CAN DOO ITTTTT!

Great plan about no more dominos i would be eating it too. We don't bring ice-cream into our house for the same reason, cos we would eat it every night, and lots of it with ice magic ha ha ha

Great to hear that you're starting to enjoy exercising. It certainly makes it a lot easier to do! And good on you for banning Dominos. I find free food is the hardest to turn down (hey, I'm cheap), so it shows real determination when both you and your house-guest choose not to bring it home from her work. Good luck for the coming week. I'm sure with that cutting out the pizza and having fun while exercising will be great for your weight loss!

Poor you must have been so hard with your friend bringing pizza home and trying not to eat it, i know id be struggling i loveeeeeeeee pizza.I only eat pizza now that i make myself,not the same but soooo much better for me Your going well keep it up nad you will look amazing atthe wdding im sure

So at the moment I seem to be stuck in a rut!!I was so motivated in March and its already May and i have moved up a little on the scale. I just let myself get down for some reason.Im hoping to just get back into it from today and learn to say no to some of the goodies out there.I hopped on the scales this morning and it read 82.7kg.....so i got to get my butt into gear or ill gain back the weight i lost in march.It helps just to get this off my chest cos it helps me to see whats going on.I have to make better choices and exercise control.Wish me luck ppl...i think im going to need it!!

Ok people!!!Im definitely not doing well with eating and exercising!!!I dont know whats happening...i just cant seem to control the hand to mouth syndrome.....and that handhappens to hold biscuits or something bad!!I dont know what im doing and i think ive leaned away from this forum. I think i need to get back on here and be active and i may get back thatmotivation!!!

Good idea Siana! I found for a while I was losing motivation and my bad habits started creeping back. Re-committing myself to the forum was the only ting that got me back on track. By stating exactly what I was going to do and not do I found the strength to actually get back into my weight loss routine.

Maybe you should post why you want to lose weight and what you're willing to do this week to make it happen? It might make you more committed and be a bit of a motivation to keep yourself accountable.

Thank you ali!So ive thought about it and here are the reasons I want to lose weight:I want to lose weight to be healthier, stronger, smaller...be able to fit into the clothes I like....have more energy....feel happy when i look in the mirror.I want to be comfortable with my body. So this week I will not cook any biscuits or sweets....(ive been making them for church events and when ppl come over...then i pick at them)so ill have to stop that for a little while until i feel i have my control back...even then it will only be occasionally!
